  28. DirectMaterials DirectLabor ManufacturingOverhead Manufacturing Costs The Product

  29. Materials Raw Materials Basic materials used in manufacturing Direct Materials Raw materials that can be physically and directly associated with the finished product

  30. Direct Materials Those materials that become an integral part of the product and that can be conveniently traced directly to it. Example:A radio installed in an automobile

  31. Indirect Materials • Raw materials that cannot be easily associated with the finished product • Not physically part of the finished product or they are an insignificant part of finished product in terms of cost • Considered part of manufacturing overhead

  32. Labor Direct Labor Work of factory employees that can be physically and directly associated with converting raw materials into finished goods Indirect Labor Work of factory employees that has no physical association with the finished product or for which it is impractical to trace to the goods produced

  33. Direct Labor Those labor costs that can be easily traced to individual units of product. Example:Wages paid to automobile assembly workers

  34. Manufacturing Overhead • Costs that are indirectly associated with manufacturing the product • Includes all manufacturing costs exceptdirect materials and direct labor

  35. Wages paid to employees who are not directly involved in production work.Examples: maintenance workers, janitors and security guards. Materials used to support the production process.
